Thanks Paul for your quick answers.

I was wondering if a "meta" package like qt4-x11-free was available with 
a smaller subset, including the most used package of Qt.

On aditional question; is it possible to build Qt with directFB instead 
X11 ? If yes how should I do ?

Thanks again for your help
